Excellent game by the Golden State Valkyries tonight! Way to go Gabby & team! My other favorite basketball player was there tonight too, Chris Paul! 3-2 Win one more game Thursday and they win the championship! Let's go, Valkyries! #WNBA

You cannot be "anti-oppression" while funding the industrial slaughter of thousands of animals every second. Non-vegan left leaning politicians & voters need to drop the performative activism & start practicing actual liberation. Go vegan. #Leftist #Democrat #Vote #Liberal #Socialism #Politics

Being vegan isn’t hard—being bred to grow fast and be killed within weeks for a chicken nugget is.

I went on my usual 6 mile Sunday morning walk today. It was pretty cold, but the smell of wet sage & the radiant desert sunrise made it all worth it.

I usually list what to watch for October, but this year I chose retro zombie films I'd never seen. I've seen every type of zombie: (oc)cult zombies, Templar knights, machine-gun mutants... ​I'm watching kid-friendly stuff as a palate cleanser. What's your favorite Halloween movie or special?

Some people might think that veganism is only about the animals. They're right, veganism is about the animals. However, what is happening to the animals doesn't just affect the animals. It also affects human health & the health of the planet as a whole. Go vegan, for LIFE. #Climate #Diet

Me just now discovering whimsigoth Me discovering that the whimsigoth aesthetic fits me perfectly Well, if you like whimsigoth, you'll love my book when it comes out... It's set in the 90s dripping in an otherworldly fantasy aesthetic. Plus, the main characters are vegan & LGBTQ. Updates soon.

Since changing my name last year, I've been second-guessing myself a lot. ​I worried about how I'm perceived and asked, "is this really me?" ​I’ve learned that simply being me is not just enough, but more than enough. Love the you that fits you best. ✌️💚 #Trans #Enby #LGBTQ #Identity #SelfLove

Day 1 of HIIT (High-Intensity Interval Training) on HRT (Hormone Replacement Therapy) It's been a long time since I've done HIIT but I'm fueled up, confident, & ready to go! #Cardio #Transgender #Vegan #Fitness #PlantPowered

By the time you finish reading this: 🐮2,000 animals will have been killed for food. 🏭225 tons of greenhouse gases will have been emitted. 💧Hundreds of thousands of gallons of water will have been used for animal ag. Go vegan and eat plant-based to stop voting for ecocide & theriocide. 🌱

Veganism is the ultimate act of selflessness. ​Trillions of sentient beings (who feel joy & pain like us) are exploited & slaughtered yearly. A number beyond our comprehension. ​They live short lives & have no family or friends, all they know is suffering & death. ​Go vegan, for the animals.

Why do people act clueless about the fact that change takes time? Non-vegans often say, “Me going vegan isn’t going to make a difference,” but if everyone had that attitude, many positive changes throughout history would never have happened. Just admit you don’t care enough to fight for change. 🌱

You shouldn't have supported them anyway after their Fortnite x Harry Potter collaboration. ​Stop supporting HP related content; including the recent Malfoid trend. Stop funding this franchise altogether, that means watching the series when it comes out. ​Trans Rights 🏳️‍⚧️

NEW: Epic Games has delayed its upcoming (not yet announced) Star Wars + Marvel shooter as it pivots to complete AI game development. "No more hand-written code," a director told staff. All art "generated with full AI workflows." Full scoop: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

‪While we urge politicians to act on legislation to preserve our only Earth, why not make a difference by living vegan? We’ll have a more livable planet while saving animals & improving our #health‬ 🌱😎💪🏻 ‪#climate #ClimateCrisis #GoVegan‬

Why go vegan? 🌱 Save more than 365 animal lives every single year 🌱 Cut your carbon footprint in half & save around 1.1 million gallons of water 🌱 Dramatically lower risks of heart disease & cancer 🌱 Eat incredible, world-class food without the guilt #Climate #Diet #Compassion #Nutrition

When you buy flesh, eggs, cow’s milk, you are supporting a system that relies on the exploitation and abuse of animals. They just don’t happen to be the ones who live in your home. Would you take your family dog to the slaughterhouse to be put down? Join the Herd! ➡️ buff.ly/Mg5yBCS

For 20 years, Epithelix has helped bring toxicity testing into the 21st century 👏 PETA scientists honored the company for advancing human cell-based models that can replace animals in testing—better science for humans AND animals!

80 billion land animals & trillions of sea lives slaughtered yearly. Animal agriculture drives 14.5% of global emissions, but plant-based diets cut food emissions up to 75%. Systemic harm is no excuse for personal violence. Animals are not commodities. Go vegan. #Climate #Abolish #Ethics

There is zero reason to support Chick-fil-A. ​Hundreds of millions of chickens are slaughtered every year for Chick-fil-A alone. Meanwhile, executive profits fund anti-LGBTQ+ causes, continuing their opposition to Matthew Shepard’s Law. ​Stand up for human & animal rights, embody your ethics. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

So very young 😢💔Not knowing what is going to happen. The worst any being can overcome. To be slaughtered for no reason. Not even slightly justifiable. Horrible and barbaric. #StopYourKillings #LiveVegan be kind to all kind 🙏☮️✌️

The global shift toward plant-based living is accelerating fast: ​🌱 More than 60% of US homes buy plant-based foods ($8 billion a year) 🌱 Plant milk holds around 15-20% of total fluid milk sales 🌱 ⅓ of global consumers are actively cutting meat ​Every shift drives real change. #Vegan #Diet

Reasons why leftists & Democrats who are not vegan irritate me: 💢 Selective empathy 💢 Opposing oppression except speciesism 💢 Structural critique over personal ethics 💢 Weaponizing rhetoric to excuse harm 💢 Cognitive dissonance #USPol #Compassion #Midterms #Vote #Ethics

Leftists and Democrats are the only ones in this country fighting for my right to exist as a trans person. Holding them to a higher standard on animal rights isn't unfair. It is about expecting consistency. Liberation means freedom for everyone, not just humans. Go vegan. #PlantBased #Climate

Living with Bipolar 1 & C-PTSD can be a nightmare. Dealing with deep burnout or a raging storm in my head is real. Quitting alcohol & therapy help. Everyday is a challenge, but I'm surviving & trying my best. 💚🩵🦋 #Sober #Trauma #WorldMentalHealthDay

Throwback to when Miley Cyrus was on Joe Rogan's podcast and blamed years of poor health & brain fog strictly on veganism. ​People still listen to him for advice, btw... ​Truly, a meeting of the minds & we should definitely trust what these two have to say about nutrition & ethics. #Diet #Vegan
